new to vespas myself im finding the same strange questions coming up. (try working on a t5 headset....what knobhead designed that pile of plastic)

but so far from what i can tell all vespas need the headset lifting off the forks to get to the ends.

i do uit by bungy tieing the bars to the shed roof so they dont dangle over and scratch the crap out of everything.

I pull the cable outer back into the speedo space, then feed the new inner through the lever hole, into the cable outer, then use the inner as a guide back into the headset
